STOVE-HOOD.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Feb. 18, 1908.

Application filed April 23. 1907. Serial No. 369.776.

To all whom it may concern.

Be it known that I, HANS HANSEN, a citizen of the United States,residing at VVarwick, in the county of Benson and State of North Dakota,have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stove-Hoods, of'which the following is a specification, reference being had thereintothe accompanying drawing.

My invention relates to improvements in hoods for stoves, particularlycooking stoves.

The object of the invention is to provide a simple and practical deviceof this character which may be readily applied to and adjusted upon astove pipe so as. to conduct all the odors, fumes and smoke arising fromthe stove and the utensils, thereon, out through the chimney.

With the above and other objects in view, the invention consists in thenovel features of construction and combination of parts hereinafterdescribed and claimed, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings,inwhich Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved stove hood, showingit applied to a cooking stove; Fig. 2 is a view of the same, partly inelevation and partly in section; and Fig. 3 is a detail view of one ofthe clamps.

In the drawings, the numeral 1 denotes a cooking or other stove and 2the smoke pipe of the same.

My invention comprises a hood 3 of suitable size and preferably ofrectangular shape with outwardly and downwardly flared orinclined sides4. Projecting vertically from the top of the hood is a pipe section 5which telescopes into a vertical pipe section 6 connected by an elbow 7to a horizontal pipe section 8 which latter opens into the stove pi e 2and contains an ordinary damper or va ve 9. The pipe 5 slides in thepipe 6 to permit the hood to be adjusted vertically toward and from thetop of the stove and it may be held in an adjusted position therein by aclamp 10, such as illustrated in Fig. 3. This clamp consists of twosimilar semi-circular sections 11 hingedly connected at one end, asshown at 12, and having their opposite ends formed with radiallyprojecting lugs or ears 13 apertured to receive a clamping bolt or thelike 14. When the latter is tightened, the two half sections or membersof the clamps are drawn together to compress the telescoping pipes 5, 6for the purpose of retaining the former in the latter, but in order torelieve the clamp 10 and hence the pipe section 8 of the weight of thehood, I preferably employ a supporting frame 15. The latter consists ofupper and lower clamps 16, 17 which are similar to the clamps 10 and arearranged upon the stove pipe 2.

Secured to one side of the upper clamp 16, as shown at 18, is a rightangular rod 19, the horizontal arm 20 of which extends forwardly andprojects through two eyes or U-shaped loops 21 suitably secured upon thetop of the hood. This engagement of the rod with the eyes 21 permits ofthe ready disconnection of the hood and support. The other or verticalarm 22 of the rod 19 is adapted to telescope into a verticallyprojecting tube 23 secured. to the lower clamp 17. A set screw 24 isprovided in the upper end of the tube or sleeve 23 to impinge againstthe rod 22 and retain it in an adjusted position therein.

From the foregoing it will be observed that the invention may be readilyapplied to any stove having an upright smoke pipe, since all that isnecessary is the attachment of the pipe 8 and the clamps 16, 17 to thestove pipe. These clamps, as well as the clamp 10, may be readilyapplied to and removed from a pipe because of the hinge connection atone end of their members and the removable bolt or the like connectionat the opposite end. Since the clamps 16, 17 may be adjusted upon anyportion of the stove pipe and may be moved toward and from each other bythe telescopic connection between the parts 22, 23, and also by reasonof the telescopic engagement of the pipe 5 with the pipe 6, the hood maybe raised or lowered as may be desired.

Having thus described my invention what I claim and desire to secure byLetters Patent is 1. The combination with a stove and its pipe, of a1pipe having one end in communication wit 1 the stove pipe and its otherend depending and arranged above the stove top, a hood, a pipe arisingfrom the latter and telescopically engaged with the dependin end of thelast mentioned pipe, upper anr lower clamps arranged upon the stovepipe, slidably engaged and adjustably connected members carried by saidclamps, and means connecting the member upon the upper clamp to saidhood.

2. The combination with a stove and its pipe, of a pipe having one endin communication with the stove pipe and its other end depending andarranged above the stove top, a hood, a ]pipe arising from the latterand telescopicaly engaged with the depending end of the last mentionedpipe, upper and lower clamps upon said stove pipe, a guide member uponthe lower clamp, a right angular su porting member upon the upper clampand sidably engaged with said guide and means connecting said rightangular supporting member to the hood.

3. The combination with a stove and its pipe, of a pipe having one endin communication with the stove pipe and its other end depending andarranged above the stove top, a hood a pipe arising from the latter andtelescopically engaged with the depending end of the last mentionedpipe, a clamp surrounding said telescoping pipes, eyes arranged uponsaid hood, upper and lower clamps upon said stove pipe, slidably engagedand adjustably connected supporting members carried by said clamps, anda horizontal arm .upon the member on the upper clamp engaged with saideyes upon the hood, substantially as described.

In testimony whereof I hereunto afiiX my signature in presence'of twowitnesses.
